Object Details

Though Nicholas Longworth had served in the House of Representatives for only three years when this postcard of his garden was issued in 1906, he already established social notoriety by marrying Alice Roosevelt, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt. Longworth’s political ascendance followed a few years later, beginning with his leadership in the successful Republican revolt against Speaker Joe Cannon.
